hi sheep
t and l is a prefix for transform and lighting,this is a simple graphic capability of most early graphics cards like the geforce 2,3 and 4
Transform, clipping, and lighting (TCL) is a term used in computer graphics, generally used in the context of hardware acceleration. This is the combination of transform and lighting (T&L) and clipping. Transform is the task of converting spatial coordinates, which in this case involves moving three-dimensional objects in a virtual world and converting the coordinates to a two-dimensional view. Clipping means only drawing things that might be visible to the viewer. Lighting is the task of taking light objects in a virtual scene, and calculating the resulting colour of surrounding objects as the light falls upon them.
In modern 3D computer games with complex scenes and detailed lighting effects, the high number of points to be transformed and lit is a computationally intense process, which is why 3D graphics cards offer acceleration.
all the latest cards are still t,n,l capable but now more emphasis is based on pixel piplines and pixel and shader models
the latest pixel and shader model is model 4.0(direct x 10) however the best direct x 9 version is pixel and shader model 3.0(other versions are model 1.0 and 2.0)
pixel pipelines or more commonly known as fragment pipelines ,A fragment pipeline refers to a pixel shader processing pipeline. Note that this is not the same as a 'pixel pipeline', it is simply one portion of a pixel pipeline.These days the name of the game is processing pixel shader programs. Pixel shader programs are what produce all the cool effects in modern video games, like lens flares, light blooms, and heat distortions. Since these programs have to run for every single pixel on the screen, it stands to reason that more of them means faster rendering
this may seem a bit technical but i believe the knowledge i learn should be passed on to others so you can understand the hardware you use more clearly
any problems let me know
good luck sheep !

Yes Because I once fell in love with my best friends mother, I did not know how to reach out to her so I came to a decisive decision and end up righting my feelings down towards her. So I gave my letter to my friend and told her to give it to his mom. After my friend's mom receive the letter so came up to me and told me how kind and generous the letter was but in the end she said this will never workout. In the bright side she said that I'll meet the girls of my dreams in the following years to come. But it's over 5 years after I gave her the letter and now I am 19 and still virgin.

you need to write your question better =)
capable of... playing games? hhhm dunno.. if it's a laptop.. it's not so great for playing graphic intense games. ya better of getting a desktop if thats what you mean..
yer it will play average games, but nothing 3d intensive like call of duty 4 etc.
